FLOYD Mayweatherâs former girlfriend has filed a $20 million defamation lawsuit against the undefeated boxer.

In a report by the New York Post, Josie Harrisâs lawyer filed a civil complaint in the Los Angeles Superior Court against Mayweather for statements made in his Yahoo Global News interview with Katie Curic a few weeks ago.

In the interview, Mayweather denied beating up Harris, the mother of Mayweatherâs three children. He said he had to restrain his ex-girlfriend in a 2010 incident in Las Vegas because she was high on drugs.

Mayweather served two months in jail in 2012 for misdemeanor domestic battery.

âIâm black. Iâm rich. And Iâm outspoken. Those are three strikes right there,â Mayweather said.
